Three stops
You don’t come to us. We come to you.
We don’t have an office “3 km from the airport” with a shuttle every half hour. We meet you where you already are.
1
Thessaloniki Airport “Makedonia” (SKG)
We meet you at arrivals with your name on a sign. Pick up right after baggage claim — no shuttle buses, no transfers.
2
Thessaloniki city centre
Delivery to your hotel or apartment in the centre. Come down, sign, drive off.
3
Delivery outside Thessaloniki
Halkidiki, Perea, Katerini, the port — anywhere, by arrangement. Tell us where you are and we sort it out.

How it works
Three steps, no platform in between.
You send your dates
Through the form, on WhatsApp or with a phone call. Tell us when you land, where you are and how many of you there are.
We confirm availability
We reply within our hours 07:00–21:00 with the exact price for your dates. No hidden fees, no prepayment.
You get the keys
At arrivals, at your hotel or wherever we agree. You pay there, sign, and drive off.
Why Avenida
A local company. One person on the phone.
We are not a chain. We are the fleet of a family business in Thessaloniki — and you can tell from the first conversation.
Damage waiver
100 km per day
No prepayment
01
You pay nothing until you see the car
No prepayment, no card hold. If your plans change, one phone call is enough.
02
The owner answers the phone
No call centre, no form that disappears. Alexandros picks up the phone and knows every car in the fleet.
03
We come to you, not the other way round
At arrivals with your name on a sign, at your hotel, at the port. No shuttle, no queues, no "our office is 3 km from the airport".
04
Prices you can see before you ask
The full price list is right here, by class and by season. No "request a quote".
Where to go
The avenue doesn’t stop at the city.
From Thessaloniki, half of Greece is a day trip. Take the car and see how close everything is.
Halkidiki
85 km1h 20m
Three fingers of land in the Aegean, an hour from your door. Kassandra for life and beach bars, Sithonia for the bays that have no name.
Mount Olympus & Litochoro
90 km1h 05m
An hour south and you are at the foot of the mountain of the gods — a gorge, plane trees, and the sea fifteen minutes away.
Meteora
235 km2h 45m
Monasteries on 400-metre rocks. The most spectacular day trip you can make from Thessaloniki.
Vergina & the Royal Tombs
75 km1h 00m
The tomb of Philip II, father of Alexander the Great — a UNESCO site, one hour from the city.
Edessa Waterfalls
90 km1h 10m
The only Greek city with waterfalls inside it. Green and cool even in August.
Thassos
155 km2h 00m
The greenest island in the Aegean, and the only one you can reach with your own car in half a day.
Lake Kerkini
100 km1h 20m
Pelicans, water buffalo and a landscape that looks more like Africa than Macedonia.
Pelion
220 km2h 30m
Stone villages on the mountain of the Centaurs, with the Aegean on one side and the Pagasetic gulf on the other.

FAQ
The things everyone asks, before you ask them.
Do I need a credit card to book?
No. We ask for no prepayment and we do not hold your card to reserve the car. You send us your dates, we confirm availability, you pay on pick-up.
Can I pick up or drop off outside your hours?
Yes. We are open 07:00–21:00. Outside those hours there is a €20 out-of-hours fee — tell us your flight time and we will arrange it.
What if my flight is delayed?
Give us your flight number when you book. We track the arrival and wait for you — no extra charge for a flight delay within our opening hours.
What is included in the price?
Collision damage waiver, 100 km a day, 24/7 roadside assistance, a second driver at no cost, VAT and airport fees. Fuel and optional extras (child seat, full waiver) are charged separately.
What is the minimum driver age?
23 years old, with a driving licence held for at least one year. If you are from outside the EU you also need an International Driving Permit alongside your national licence.
Can I take the car to Thassos or another island?
Yes, but call us first. While the car is on the ferry (e.g. Keramoti–Thassos) it is not covered by the insurer, so we need to know. Taking the car out of Greece is only possible by prior arrangement and with extra paperwork.
How much does delivery outside Thessaloniki cost?
It depends on the distance. Delivery to Halkidiki, Perea, Katerini or elsewhere is by arrangement — tell us where you are and we will tell you exactly what it costs, with no surprises.
How do I pay?
On pick-up, in cash or by card. You get a receipt or an invoice, whichever you need.
